Learning

At Fraser High School, we continue to design a range of purposeful learning experiences that are connected to a vocational pathway. 

We endeavour to empower our students to:

  • Be confident in their abilities and goals
  • Be connected to and involved in communities, both locally and beyond
  • Be life-long learners and use their learning to benefit others

This means enabling our students to learn, discover their passion and to pursue their passion.

Fraser’s L.E.A.D programme is focused on building the foundation skills and attitudes necessary for our students’ success, nurturing a sense of belonging and confidence to learn at Fraser.

L.E.A.D.

We support students to discover their strengths, pursue their passions, and build a path toward lifelong success.

We are proud of our students’ achievements and belonging to Fraser’s legacy of success. We can hold our heads high as we endeavour to be the best we can be.

Every student at Fraser is an individual of unique worth. We value those who contribute and participate in the Fraser community in a caring and positive way. We believe in our students’ success and know that they deserve to achieve and succeed. 

We encourage our students to be courageous in their pursuit of success. We overcome the fear of failure by giving our students permission to make mistakes as they learn to achieve.

Understanding NCEA

The National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA), is the primary qualification for New Zealand’s secondary school students. NCEA is recognised by employers and universities in New Zealand and abroad. It’s a stepping stone for students to get into employment, apprenticeships, and various further study options, from trades training to degree-level study.
 
For each Achievement Standard attained within a subject, students will receive an Achieved, Merit or Excellence level. Unit Standards count towards the total 80 credits. ‘Achieved’ is the pass level.
